CHEERLEADING
The Indian Hill High school cheerleaders traveled to Orlando Florida’s this past weekend to compete in the National High School Cheerleading championship. The cheerleading squad was able to secure their bid after an extensive process that included attending a UCA camp at Miami University, getting USA safety certified, obtaining credentials, qualifying at regionals, and getting 3rd place at the Ohio High School State Cheerleading Championship. The Braves Cheerleaders had a strong showing as they competed against teams from D1 schools from many different states to advance from the preliminary round to the semi finals with 2 flawless routines getting zero deductions! Your IHHS Braves are 12th in the nation- a place to be very proud of!
